Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 113

That can't do!

She can't be beaten so easily. It was just looking better. Nothing special!

Dai Xiao Xue cheered herself up and pushed herself live up to expectations.

At this moment, Da Qiao seemed to sense her gaze. Da Qiao turned to look at her and smiled at her.

The winter sun shone in from the window and cast its ray on her. Her smile was pure and bright. Her eyelashes were long and dense, while her eyes were moist. This sight made her heart beat faster.

Dai Xiao Xue grasped her chest as her face flushed with agitation.

Ah, what a peerless little celestial!

How can she smile so beautifully? !

Seeing her like this, Da Qiao thought she was unwell. She walked over to her: "Are you alright?"

Dai Xiao Xue was overwhelmed with excitement: "I...I, I'm fine. Younger Sister Da Qiao, you look so pretty!"

Da Qiao didn't expect that her first sentence was to praise her. Still everyone liked to listen to compliments. She was no exception.

She pursed her lips and revealing two dimples, "Thank you for your compliment. You are also pretty!"

Dai Xiao Xue's neck went red from the praise: "Really? Do you really think I'm pretty?"

Da Qiao nodded.

Dai Xiao Xue had difficulty breathing and was close to fainting!

She was praised by celestial fairy ahhh!

On the other side, Huo Chi's gaze kept following Da Qiao. Seeing that she was getting closer tp Dai Xiao Xue, he frowned.

He didn't object to his mom helping her maternal family as long as they didn't gain an inch and push for a foot.

Dai Xiao Xue was lively and active. Her mouth was like a sparrow chirping all day long. Since she arrived, Huo's house had become more lively.

His mom and grandfather always disliked that the home being empty and unpopulated. The arrival of Dai Xiao Xue made up for this.

In this regard, he was very grateful to his younger cousin sister for bringing joy to the family. However, this cousin had a shortcoming; she was a little petty.

Huo Family liked Da Qiao dearly. And because of this, Dai Xiao Xue had said a lot of bitter words. Although those words weren't mean, he still didn't like them.

As he was worried that Dai Xiao Xue would say something unpleasant to Da Qiao at this moment, he quickly walked over.

Who knew that as soon as he walked over, he heard Dai Xiao Xue meekly say shyly: "Younger Sister Qiao, can I be friends with you?"

Huo Chi: ?

Da Qiao softly replied, "Of course you can."

Dai Xiao Xue was so moved that she was close to tears: "That's great! Younger Sister Da Qiao, I'll send you something delicious when I get back. By the way, what do you like to eat?"

Huo Chi: ? ?

This...it seemed a little different from what he thought.

Could this be her new method?

Huo Chi couldn't understand. So he coughed, "Xiao Xue, don't say Younger Sister Da Qiao. You are three or four months younger than Da Qiao."

Dai Xiao Xue expressed surprised when she heard this. Her eyes fell on Da Qiao's fair and tender face and remarked, "A pretty girl like you look young. Not like me, my skin is rough and yellow. I thought I'm a few years older than you!"

Huo Chi: ? ? ?

Even stepping on herself? ?

If this was her new method, it would be...overexerting herself?

Da Qiao pursed her lips into a smiled: "The skin can be nurtured. I think you are very cute."

Dai Xiao Xue fidgeted as she shyly chirped, "You are cuter!"

Huo Chi: "..."

Why did it feel like he was an extra?

Seeing that his younger cousin sister wasn't hostile to Da Qiao, Huo Chi gave up on the warning.

In this way, a new little tail appeared behind Da Qiao. What's more, it was a starry-eyed face-con little tail.

For the big meal, they had to move it to outside as inside couldn't fit everyone.

Together with Wei Family's two elders, there was a total of 31 people. They were divided between two tables for adults and two tables for children.

Today's dishes were bountiful. Now the state encouraged economic development, it was more convenient to buy things. Unlike before, where one was worried about neighbors finding out and they can't explain when cooking more meat.

Now, there was no fear. They can eat whatever they want and as much as they want. Completely free from getting reported by someone!

Qiao Family's big feast recipes include: braised prawns, saucy ribs, pot-packed meat, fresh bamboo shoots and chicken soup, large plate chicken, and steamed fish. The main was glutinous rice, eight treasures rice, and five-color prosperous dumplings.

Children and adults alike ate till their heart content.

Although the economy had improved in the past two years, culinary wasn't something one can have with money. The food at Qiao Family was more delicious than outside!

While eating dumplings, Da Qiao bit on something. She spat it out and grinned, "I got a copper coin!"

Seeing this, Wan Chun Ju's heart twisted.

In order to find the dumpling with a copper coin, she ate thirty dumplings in a row. Still, she didn't eat any with a coin!

She sneered, "Da Qiao is a very lucky child. However, there's a limit to one's blessings. If there's too many, some people may not be able to withstand it!"

As soon as these words fell, a voice resentfully sounded out: "This auntie, what do you mean by saying this? Elder Sister Da Qiao is so beautiful. Even if the whole world worth of blessing is concentrated on her, she can bear it!"

The person who was rainbow-licking was none other than the new fan girl, Dai Xiao Xue.

Da Qiao was a little embarrassed from Dai Xiao Xue.

Xiao Dong Yun nodded in agreement: "This elder sister is right. Elder Sister Da Qiao hold up any kind of fortune. Mom, don't be the ugly person making trouble. Just eat your dumplings!"

Wna Chun Ju: "..."

She almost vomited blood on the spot!

It was enough that outsiders retorted her. Now her apple of her eye daughter seconded it. She felt sad and vexed!

Qiao Hong Xia let out a chuckle: "I remember that when Dong Llin and Yi Ming were little, they competed for Da Qiao's fondness like black-eyed chickens. I didn't expect that after so many years, Da Qiao is still so popular!"

When Dong Lin and Yi Ming heard this, they looked at each other and blushed in embarrassment.

Both of them were currently in the period of voice change. That's why, their voice haven't been heard much all evening.

Dai Shu Fang nodded: "That's because Da Qiao is worthy of being liked. Not to mention children, even I, an adult, like her too!"

Qiao Yue Ming, Qiao Zhen Min, and others also echoed after hearing this.

These people had more or less been 'indebted' to Da Qiao. And aside from this, Da Qiao was pretty and smart younger generation. Her personality was soft and fluffy. Who wouldn't like her?

When Wan Chun Ju heard that everyone was praising Da Qiao, she became more and more fed up!

After the big meal, the adults gave the children lucky money. It was obvious that Da Qiao receive more money than her other siblings.

It seem no one found it strange anymore. Except jealous-eyed Wan Chun Ju, no one was dissatisfied.

As always, Wan Chun Ju's opinion had been ignored by everyone. Therefore, the atmosphere of this New Year's Eve was very warm.

During the wait for new year countdown, the children were playing cards as they laughed and joked. They even reached the topic of An Ping eating bee poo.

The others laughed when they heard it. An Ping was already numb from the laughter.

Fortunately, he was good-tempered. If someone else was laughed at like this by everyone, they would probably have been embarrassed and angry. At most, he would plead everyone to stop talking about it.

Who would have guessed that at this time, someone dropped something astounding: "Ah, what a coincidence. I've eaten poo too!"

Everyone: "..."

Thunderstruck, everyone's mind was in a mess. This kind of coincidence wasn't something to be happy about, right?

Still, Dai Xiao Xue had a surprised expression!

Hearing that she wasn't mocking him, An Ping suddenly felt that she was cute and straightforward. Completely different from other people!

Dai Xiao Xue continued to drop bombs: "When I was little, I was very curious about the taste of my own poo. So I dipped my fingers in it a little to try it. My mother happened to see me as I put it in my mouth!"

Everyone: ""

This topic had caused serious discomfort. Can you please not continue?

Speechless, Huo Chi stared at his younger cousin sister who was chattering non-stop.

Why didn't he find out that his younger cousin sister was this amusing before today?

Da Qiao noticed the crowd was shocked. Leaning toward her elder cousin sister, she giggled and whispered, "Why do I sense some excitement from Elder Cousin Brother when he sees Xiao Xue?"

Qiao Dong Ying glanced at her younger brother. Then she rolled her eyes at the ceiling: "Two clowns!"

In order to keep her from going on, everyone didn't respond to Dai Xiao Xue's words. However, there was someone who seemed to have met a fellow on same path.

This person was An Ping, who had also eaten poo. His bright eyes stared at Dai Xiao Xue: "What happen next? Did your mom beat you?"

Dai Xiao Xue shook her head and answered, "No, my mom said the child can still be kept after washing!"

An Ping looked relieved: "Of course can be kept. What's wrong with eating poo?"

Dai Xiao Xue nodded like a pecking chicken, "That's right. My elder brother kept disdaining me since he knew about me eating poo. But I don't think I'm dirty at all!"

Everyone: "..."

Should they just walk away and give the venue to these two?

Little Dong Yun opened her mouth and her sweet voice rang, "I think your mom should had beat you up so that you can have a complete childhood!"

The implication was that a childhood was incomplete without some beating and that naughty children should be beaten hard!

Everyone burst into laughter at these words.

Qiao Family's side was all fun and joy. While far at in Xiangjiang, it was gloomy at Huo's house.

After Wang Anna was diagnosed with breast cancer, her whole mental state collapsed.

Her temper was originally bad. But since she knew she was ill, it became worse!

She berated every day; at Huo Zheng Chen, at Dai Shu Fang, at Huo Chi. Even all the doctors and nurses in the hospital were cursed by her!

If it weren't for the money, she would have been swept out of the door long ago!

Huo Zheng Chen was running out of patience with her temper. However, he couldn't do anything to abandon her at this time. He had to swallow this anger.

Wang Anna didn't believe in Xiangjiang's doctor's level and insisted on returning to Country Mi for surgery.

But the doctor said that her current situation wasn't suitable for delay. And she may not be able to arrange surgery immediately once she get back to Country Mi. This will only delay the best treatment time.

Huo Zheng Chen had to persuade her to get treatment in Xiangjiang.

At first, Wang Anna was still clamoring to go back. Soon, she shut up. The cancer cells had spread very quickly in her body. Her breasts had begun to ooze out stinky fluid, while the lymph nodes in her armpits were terribly swollen. The blood coughed out and the bone pain symptoms were getting worse.

Her immune system was depleted so badly that even if she insisted on going back to County Mi, nothing could be done.

In the end, Wang Anna underwent surgery in Xiangjiang.

Her hair was all shaved and one of her breasts was cut off. After the operation, she touched the only side of her breast that was left. A hissing scream was let out at once.

"Heaven is not fair! Why did he do this to me!? What did I, Wang Anna, do wrong?"

"B*tch! That b*tch must have put a curse on me! I was fine before I saw her. She must have harmed me!"

"B*tch, still not satisfied with taking away all the property of our Huo Family. I won't let her off. Even if I die, I will drag her to hell with me!"

"You're sick because your health has deteriorated. What does this have to do with Shu Fang? Cancer is the presence of cancer cells in your body. Even if she have incredible ability, she can't put cancer cells into your body, alright?"

Huo Zheng Chen used to watch her scolding the sky and the earth. But now she blamed Dai Shu Fang for her own illness.

Seeing him have 'Dai Shu Fang' hanging on his mouth, Wang Anna's eyes became red with jealousy: "It's that b*tch who's harming me! Because I stole you! She can't accept it and got someone to curse me! I'm going to report her!"

Huo Zheng Chen: "..."

He felt that Wang Anna was simply sick in the mind!

She can even utter such nonsense.

Wang Anna became even more stimulated by his gaze of looking at 'mentally retarded': "What? You can't bear it? You feel heart ache, don't you? I know you can't forget her in your heart. You b*stard, if you couldn't forget her in the first place, why did you choose to be with me?"

Huo Zheng Chen only felt mentally tired for a while: "You have a good rest. I will bring the children to see you tomorrow."

Today was New Year's Eve. It was supposed to be a family get-together day. However, Huo Family was in chaos.

He didn't want to stay in this home for a moment!

After saying that, he turned and left.

Wang Anna blushed with anger: "Huo Zheng Chen, stop right there! You tortoise b*stard, come back here! I'm going to curse you. Curse you all to die!"

After distancing himself far from the ward, Huo Zheng Chen could still hear Wang Anna's swearing.

He let out a deep breath. His appearance looked five or six years older than before.

Such a life was something he had never imagined.

He didn't know if he made a mistake when he decided to go back to here to find his relatives. He didn't want to disappoint everyone, but in the end everyone blamed him!

He was like the Eight Precepts in the mirror - every step was wrong!

Qiao Dong He was twenty-one after the new year. If she had been in the village, she would had already been married and had children.

She and Luo Jun Liang confirmed their relationship during their sophomores. Now that they have been together for two years, Luo Family intend to bring the relationship between the two children to the next level.

On the second day of the new year, Luo Jun Liang brought his parents to Qiao's house with a lot of things.

Luo Qing was a little embarrassed when he saw Qiao Zhen Min. But he wasn't one to be fidgety. He apologized to Qiao Zhen Min in person.

Qiao Zhen Min waved his hand. He expressed that he had long forgotten that little matter and told him to not care about it.

The purpose of Luo Family's visit was very clear; getting Luo Jun Liang and Qiao Dong He engaged.

Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan asked Qiao Dong He what her thoughts were and had discussed with her parents. Finally, they decided to get engaged first. Once both children get admitted to graduate school, they'll then hold a banquet .

Both Qiao Dong He and Luo Jun Liang want to develop in the capital in the future. They have decided to apply for postgraduate studies in the capital and will start a family in the capital in the future.

Although Luo Family wanted to hold the wedding now and get the marriage certificate, they can't forced it since the female side already gave an explanation.

So, Qiao Dong He and Luo Jun Liang got engaged before returning to the capital for studies.

A year later, Qiao Zhen Jun and Qiao Zhen Min brothers made a decision. They decided to resign from the food factory and go out on their own.

In recent years, due to the development of the private sector, the economy of the food factory had deteriorated day by day.

Qiao Zhen Jun and Qiao Zhen Min brothers had long wanted to resign, but at that time the factory manager refused to let them go. Because being indebted to the factory manager in the past few years, they had to agree to the factory manager's request and continue working in the factory for a few more years.

Now that the efficiency of the factory was getting worse and Qiao Family's economy was getting better and better, they can't delay any longer.

They wanted to take advantage of this early wind to expand their business.

The factory manager knew that he couldn't keep them. So he let them go.

After Qiao Zhen Jun resigned, he decided to continue to expand the family's grocery store. Most important thing was to expand the grocery store's products.

In the past, the grocery store only sold snacks and some things like firewood, rice, oil, salt, etc. These were small profit. No matter how good the business was, they couldn't make much money.

He wanted to open a grocery store that sells everything; food and clothing. As long as one want it, the grocery store will sell it!

In fact, this was the prototype of the future supermarket.

Qiao Zhen Min thought his second elder brother's idea was a good idea. However, he didn't want to continue working with his second elder brother this time.

Brothers got to clearly settle accounts. Once the business expands, it was best to separate. If not, it will affect the brotherhood sooner or later.

Besides, nowadays the country was vigorously developing the economy. There were profitable projects everywhere. There was no need for the brothers to keep their eyes on one place.

He wanted to start a transportation company with two other friends.

Nowadays, there was a huge gap in freight between north and south. There were very few freight companies. If he can seize the market before others find business opportunities, then he can gain a firm foothold in transportation industry!

But to get into transportation, he had to buy vehicles first. Four large trucks needed a lot of money. He decided to take the funds from the grocery store and sell his house.

Even like this, the money was still not enough. The family's money was used to buy a house, so he had no plans to borrow from his parents.

Just when he was at a loss, Chu Sheng Mei came.

Qiao Zhen Min plunged into the bathroom in a flash and used hair wax to smooth his hair.

He turned around in front of the mirror and felt that he was very handsome in the mirror!
